Employee Self-Service Facilitates HR Strategic Role

Time, cost savings possible with quality Employee Self-Service software solution.

Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) August 17, 2006 -- In a recent industry survey, HR professionals revealed their continued interest in improving the quality of HR; more than 70 percent said this was their primary business objective. One of the keys to accomplishing this objective is automating transactional processes, such as Employee Self-Service (http://www.hramerica.com) (ESS).

HRAmerica, powered by UltiPro (http://www.hramerica.com), recently released Top HR Trends in 2006 (http://www.jetpoweredgroup.com/hra_nl/dynamic_signup.asp?refer=MPR_Trends_Report_071106). This report included trend-based analysis and recommendations based on industry leader performance and practices. One of these recommendations included upgrading service to include ESS.

An automated and cost-effective software solution for implementing and maintaining ESS, such as UltiPro (http://www.hramerica.com), allows HR professionals to reduce their administrative burden. It also helps them operate more effectively, chosen as a primary goal by nearly 60 percent of respondents in the Top HR Trends in 2006 (http://www.jetpoweredgroup.com/hra_nl/dynamic_signup.asp?refer=MPR_Trends_Report_071106) report. A secure ESS system allows employees to:

• View paycheck details, benefits summaries, frequently used forms and company information

• Update personal information

• Change their direct deposit accounts

• Update dependents and beneficiaries

• Request vacation or paid time off

• Make benefits elections

• Enroll in training
